. A pressure gage connected to a tank reads 50 psi at a location where the barometric reading is 29.1 Hg. Determine the absolute pressure in the tank.

Sagot :

[tex]\large \bold {SOLUTION}[/tex]

First, we have to convert the atmospheric pressure into psi. Where an inch of mercury is equal to about 0.491 pounds per square inch

[tex]\sf{(29.1 \: hg)( \dfrac{0.491 \: psi}{1 \: hg} )}[/tex]

[tex]\sf\blue{ = 14.2889 \: psi}[/tex]

The sum of the gauge and the atmospheric pressure is the absolute pressure.

[tex]\sf{P_{abs}= P_{gage} + P_{atm}}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{P_{abs}= 50 \: psi + 14.2889 \: psi}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\green{\sf{P_{abs}≈64.29 \: psi }}} [/tex]
